Q => The ages of Amit and sumo are in the ratio 2:3 after 15 yrs the ratio will be 3:4 find present age.

S → The ratio of ages of Amit and Sumo is 2:3.

Let us consider their ages as 2x and 3x.

So, According To Question →

(2x+15)/(3x+15) = 3/4

or, 4(2x+15) = 3(3x+15)

or, 8x + 60 = 9x + 45

or, 60-45 = 9x-8x

or, 15 = x

or, x = 15

So, age of Amit is 2x = 2×15 = 30 years

Age of Sumo is 3x = 3 × 15 = 45 years
